Actually, I got the creepy feeling in this talk, that I haven't felt before, that Andreas was "speaking" the Bitcoin party line, not acknowledging how dangerous Bitcoin is, that they're not fungible, etc... I mean just what Coinbase is doing with not accepting coins that have been through known gambling sites alone, is a failure point for Bitcoin, and Andreas glossed over that.
You're right, I felt like he did not say what he knew he should say, IMO. Why is it? is what I wonder. Has he sold his soul? I'm a bit worried at this point. Perhaps it was his audience? Perhaps it was who paid for this talk?
I just got a creepy feeling... he seemed conflicted. g2g thought, so I don't know how the whole talk went...
